On October 22nd, 2022, the Texas Longhorns staged a dramatic comeback to defeat the Mississippi State Bulldogs 45-38 in overtime. The victory, however, was overshadowed by an injury to star quarterback Arch Manning.
Manning, a redshirt sophomore, had a strong performance, throwing for 346 yards, 3 touchdowns, and 1 interception. He also rushed for a score to help the Longhorns (6-2, 3-1 SEC) erase a 17-point fourth-quarter deficit.
However, on the first play of overtime, Manning scrambled for a 13-yard gain but then left the field with an apparent upper body injury. Backup quarterback Matthew Caldwell entered the game and threw a 10-yard touchdown pass to Emmett Mosley to secure the victory for Texas.
